		<description><![CDATA[DIY web site Instructables posts a detailed step-by-step guide for repurposing the keys from an old keyboard as thumbtacks. All you&#8217;ll need to pull it off is the keyboard, round-topped push pins, a drill, and some hot glue. It&#8217;s quick, easy, and decidedly cool if you&#8217;ve got a nostalgic kick for retro computing.
